多个公开来源
- 苹果已决定使用谷歌芯片开发其人工智能软件基础设施的两个关键组成部分。
- 此次合作突显了谷歌张量处理单元（TPU）在关键AI组件开发中的应用，同时苹果正在推出其新AI套件。
我们的观点
苹果决定使用谷歌TPU而非英伟达GPU进行AI模型训练，标志着其AI基础设施战略的重大转变，利用谷歌定制AI芯片。此举凸显苹果旨在多元化硬件依赖，并在英伟达市场主导下探索替代技术。

发生了什么
根据周一发表的一篇研究论文，苹果选择使用谷歌设计的芯片，而不是行业领导者英伟达的芯片，来开发其人工智能（AI）软件基础设施的两个基本组件。鉴于英伟达在AI处理器市场的主导地位，苹果决定依赖谷歌的云基础设施值得注意。
以其备受追捧的AI处理器而闻名的英伟达，与谷歌和亚马逊等其他云计算公司的芯片一起，占据了大约80%的市场份额。尽管英伟达地位显赫，但苹果的研究论文并未提及使用英伟达硬件。相反，它强调了对谷歌张量处理单元（TPU）的依赖。
为了训练其AI模型，苹果使用了两种类型的谷歌TPU，组织成大型集群。具体而言，苹果为用于iPhone和其他设备的AI模型使用了2,048块TPUv5p芯片，为其服务器AI模型使用了8,192块TPUv4处理器。与专注于作为独立产品销售的图形处理单元（GPU）的英伟达不同，谷歌通过其谷歌云平台提供TPU访问，要求客户在该平台内构建软件以使用这些芯片。 另见: ECHOES 协会.

为何重要
苹果的举动意义重大，因为它标志着摆脱了广泛用于AI应用的英伟达GPU。谷歌针对特定AI任务量身定制TPU，使其成为苹果等公司的可行替代方案。 另见: IT部门 - Athlok.
本周，苹果正在向Beta用户推出其新AI套件Apple Intelligence的部分功能。周一的论文首次全面披露了苹果对谷歌硬件的依赖程度，尽管路透社在6月曾报道过使用TPU芯片。谷歌和英伟达均拒绝对此事置评。
苹果工程师在论文中指出，通过使用谷歌的芯片，该公司可以开发更大、更复杂的模型。这一消息是在苹果6月开发者大会上发布新AI功能之后传出的，其中包括将OpenAI的ChatGPT技术集成到其软件中。 另见: Alejandro Estua.
这一消息披露后，苹果股价周一小幅下跌0.1%，收于218.24美元。 另见: 亚历杭德罗·曼佐.
